The essential role of multi-point measurements in investigations of turbulence, three-dimensional structure, and dynamics: the solar wind beyond single scale and the Taylor Hypothesis

W. H. Matthaeus, S. Adhikari, R. Bandyopadhyay +49

Space plasmas are three-dimensional dynamic entities. Except under very special circumstances, their structure in space and their behavior in time are not related in any simple way…

Interplay of Turbulence and Proton-Microinstability Growth in Space Plasmas

Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Ramiz A. Qudsi, William H. Matthaeus +13

Numerous prior studies have shown that as proton beta increases, a narrower range of proton temperature anisotropy values is observed. This effect has often been ascribed to the ac…

Intermittency and Ion Temperature-Anisotropy Instabilities: Simulation and Magnetosheath Observation

Ramiz A. Qudsi, Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Bennett A. Maruca +11

Weakly collisional space plasmas are rarely in local thermal equilibrium and often exhibit non-Maxwellian electron and ion velocity distributions that lead to the growth of microin…

Dependence of kinetic plasma waves on ion-to-electron mass ratio and light-to-Alfvén speed ratio

Daniel Verscharen, Tulasi N. Parashar, S. Peter Gary +1

The magnetization is an important parameter in plasma astrophysics, where and are the electron gyro-frequency and…

[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The essential role of multi-point measurements in turbulence investigations: the solar wind beyond single scale and beyond the Taylor Hypothesis

W. H. Matthaeus, R. Bandyopadhyay, M. R. Brown +46

This paper briefly reviews a number of fundamental measurements that need to be made in order to characterize turbulence in space plasmas such as the solar wind. It has long been k…

MMS Observations of Beta-Dependent Constraints on Ion Temperature-Anisotropy in Earth's Magnetosheath

Bennett A. Maruca, A. Chasapis, S. P. Gary +15

Protons (ionized hydrogen) in the solar wind frequently exhibit distinct temperatures ( and ) perpendicular and parallel to the plasma's background ma…
